Last week, about 5 a.m. on a weekday, somebody visited one of the (tiny, in full view of the street) garden areas next to our circular drive. The person lit a fire in front of a wooden bench and behind a low-growing box shrub, and danced around it.

The police and fire department responded. They stood respectfully back and waited for this person to finish their religious observance. This person then retired to another building not too far away. Perhaps then the fire department took care of any lingering aura surrounding the event.

A naked woman is the only way this story makes any sense whatsoever. Since the equinox was almost a month ago, I have no idea what religion it may have been. I think she should use a hibachi next time.

Almost sounds like something I might see one of "our locals" trying, but that can occur most any day around here...NO equinox required in Indiana, apparently...lol.

We only seem to ge those "shadow boxing" down the street,a person pushing a shopping cart (from the nearest store), people talking to themselves (and holding some damn good conversations, by the sound of it), and a few frustrated wannabe (c)RAP "artists" who jive and bop down the street, iPod earbuds firmly entrenced in their eustachian canals, basketball bouncing, long silk shorts flapping in the breeze, with more than a few inches of the old "CKs' showing above the "thigh band" (formerly the waist band)...wahtta sight.

Ann T:Bizarre, neh, even weird. Perhaps the authorities did not want to try intervening, since authority intervening with the floridly mentally ill often ends badly. The tidying up by the fire department seems about right.The Observer
